Beck should lead like a parent....

Stopped reading right f’ing there.

NO! It is NOT anyone’s job in the media or government to “lead like a parent”!

Get this through your thick f’ing skull! This is what got Clinton elected, the damn pony tailed guy in Richmond, Virginia that stood up and said, “Think of us as your children...”

That’s music to the ears of anyone that wants power, dictatorial control and to lead without mandate. We are NOT following Glenn Beck! We are NOT being led around by the nose! We are NOT parroting talking points!

Glenn Beck is everyman who’s fed up with everything he sees. He’s a representative of outrage, not the cause of it. He is not a leader, he doesn’t want to be a leader and he has shunned taking credit for mass voter discontent.

You can turn the channel, you can listen to other commentators, you can become apolitical. However the second you’ve told someone to “lead like a parent” or to “think of us as your children” you’ve surrendered yourself to their will, not yours.

Just how new are you to this life, liberty and pursuit of happiness thing???
